XUD warm start unstable idle
#1
We were 'Dahn Sarf' over the weekend and I noticed that during warm starts the idle sometimes went a little unstable and it would rev up to either approx. 1200rpm or a couple of times 1000rpm - did not do it every time (maybe approx. 50%).Not noticed any problems with a cold start yet and the revving never lasted very long.

I changed the fuel filter 1,000 ish miles ago so will obviously have to check the clear pipe for air bubbles.

The cold start waxstat cable is loosened right off anyway because the waxstat packed up over a year ago.

The engine has otherwise been faultless and we drove down the M6/M42/M40 last thur at 75mph when possible and on a rough calculation the car returned at least 45mpg on the way south.

Any ideas guys ?
